A Reminder About Parking, Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures

As we continue to navigate the construction work in the area, we would like to remind families of the parking, drop-off, and pick-up procedures in place to help ensure the safety of all students.
For student safety, please do not enter the school parking lot to drop off your student in the roundabout. The roundabout is reserved exclusively for Special Transportation.

If you plan to pick up your child at the end of the school day, please arrange to meet them at a nearby location. Parking and waiting on school property will not be permitted.

Please also be aware that vehicles will no longer be able to drive through the school parking lot to access the Canoe Club. Students who drive to school should park at the Canoe Club or the adjacent parking lot, both of which can be accessed from John Street.

A designated pedestrian pathway between the ball diamond and St. Mary's Catholic School will be clearly marked to provide students with safe access to the school.

Reminder: Lake Avenue will continue to be reserved exclusively for school buses.

We appreciate everyone's cooperation and patience as we work through these changes. Your support in following these procedures helps us maintain a safe environment for all of our students.

Thank you for your continued support.
